First, you want to establish your equations.
L=7W-2
P=60
This is what we already know. To find the width, we have to plug in what we know into P=2(L+W), our equation to find perimeter.
60=2(7W-2+W)
Now that we only have 1 variable, we can solve.
First, distribute the 2.
60=14W-4+2W
Next, combine like terms.
60=16W-4
Then, add four to both sides.
64=16W
Lastly, divide both sides by 16
W=4
To find the length, we plug in our width.
7W-2
7(4)-2
28-2
L=26

Answer:
The given system has NO SOLUTION.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the given system of equation is:
6 x - 2 y = 5 .......... (1)
3 x - y = 10 .... (2)
Multiply equation 2 with (-2), we get:
3 x - y = 10 ( x -2)
⇒ - 6 x + 2 y = - 20
Now, ADD this to equation (1) , we get:
6 x - 2 y - 6 x + 2 y = 5 - 20
or, 0 = - 15
WHICH IS NOT POSSIBLE as 0 ≠ -15
Hence, the given system has NO SOLUTION.
Answer:
(1 
, 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
7x - y = 7 → (1)
x + 2y = 6 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term
14x - 2y = 14 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
15x = 20 ( divide both sides by 15 )
x = 
= 
= 1
Substitute this value of x into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting in (2)
+ 2y = 6
2y = 6 - = 
( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 
= 2
